Need help with Radio Control setup on my Star 30
Hello,
I am new to R/C sailboating and am building my first Dumas Star Class Sailboat Kit 30". Unfortunately the instructions that come with it are less then crud and are not meant for a beginner. I have been trying to find books on R/C sailboats but have not had any luck so far. I just finished building the hull and am at a standstill as I need to figure out what I need to purchase and how to install the radio control part of the boat, servos, winches etc. I know nothing about this aside from little bits and peaces that I got from reading random posts. From what I know, I need one servo for the rudder and one sail winch for control of sail. Now I have no clue as to which winches and sail controls to get and how to install them. Can you please help?
Thank you all!!!
